After her adventures at the Make a NOise carnival, Amy Greenhouse is back. This time, she joined us at Glastonbury to show the farm a bit of love. The question is, where's Trace?

So, we're here at Glastonbury and, after a few wrong turns on the way here and some hitches pitching my tent (I've never been the best camper), I'm starting to settle into the rhythm of working at the festival.
The Greenpeace field is almost complete and the garden design is quite amazing with covered walkways, vegetable patches and other examples of one planet living. As I write, music is blaring from the skateboard ramp behind me and I can hear the whoosh of wheels as the skaters do their turns.Last night, I was lured into the interactive light installation (another work by Jason Bruges, who created the installation at last year's 100% Light expo) which is quite addictive, especially after a few cans of Strongbow. Watch this video on our moblog to get some idea of what it's about.

The editor of sidewalk got in touch with us on Saturday to confirm the winners of our competition to win three pairs of Glastonbury tickets.
Just to recap, we asked skaters (or fakers) to submit clips of themselves on a video site in order to enter for three categories: best trick, best line (or group of tricks put together if you aren’t a skater) and judges discretion.

I still have to get hold of some wellies (my trusty pair is elsewhere right now) and a tent, but things are starting to fall into place for Glastonbury. The team working hard to bring the Greenpeace field to life are not far from my desk and I haven't heard any raised voices yet which has to be a good sign. But for those out there with tickets (if you don't have them yet, you can still win a pair with our Greener Glastonbury Giveaway on Facebook), exactly what is being cooked up?

This competition is for fun and to raise awareness about sustainably harvested timber but there are still a few rules, sorry:
Time to register for Glastonbury
Posted by tracy on 26 February 2008.
I've been getting emails for months now about the summer festival options, there were even promises of sunshine (I don’t believe them), and with spring just around the corner it's about time I started to figure out what I'll be doing.
After slogging through the mud for about a week at Glastonbury last year with the Greenpeace team, the thought of going back made my heart sink. But then I thought what if it really is sunny this year? Oh what joy I remember in those fleeting sunny moments. Ok, I can't resist it, I want to go.
